Testing to see if any "kick back movement" during washer is ON. To my surprised, it was a very good news that, there was not even a little kick back movement at all. This tell me that you can pretty much use 3 ties wrap and mount it anywhere you want.....

Because there was no kick back movement during washer is ON, it does not require special bracket at all and there are many ways and places you can mount it. Just use big ties wrap and mount it anywhere you want. My ideal place to mount the washer would be inside the lower grille. But when i pre-install the bumper, the front "tow hook" is in the way (to think of it, i think Renntech also run into problem when they install their first protoype IC because of the "tow hook").

This is how the washer would look like when the bumper is install back. As you can see, the "tow hook" is in the way. But i can still mount the washer at this location if i want it to. All i have to do is move the washer about 3 inches toward the intercooler. One good feature about the washer is that, you can turn the washer nozzle 360 degree regardless where you mount it.

All i have to say about this mod, anyone can do this mods. I didn't want to do it today yet because i need to find out from the dealer if i can empty the fluid/soap reservior bottle and fill it up with water.
